What's new in Siril 0.9 alpha
Siril 0.9 alpha is the new version (2013-2014) of Siril. It is a massive upgrade of the previous 0.8 version of 2006 (old website). Many things have changed since then, including:
- new development team and website
- many new image formats supported for import (converted to Siril's FITS: 8-bit and 16-bit BMP, TIFF, JPEG, PNG, NetPBM binary images, RAW DSLR images and loaded natively: SER files and any film with AVI extension) and export
- better image sequence handling, with non-contiguous sequences, but still requiring file names to be postfixed by integers (like: image001.fit and not image001L.fit)
- new graphical user interface based on GTK+ version 3.4 and above, and in general update of dependencies to latest versions
- new display modes added to the standard linear scaling with lo/hi bounds: log, asinh, sqr, sqrt, histeq, negative, false colors
- new manual translation method (based on FWHM instead of DFT) with two preview renderings of the current image with reference frame in transparency
- new commands available for the command line, see the list of available commands
- a star finding algorithm with PSF information
- numerous bugs fixed and internal code refactoring for a better extensibility
